Ulster coat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ulster was originally a Victorian working daytime overcoat, with a cape and sleeves. It is often seen in period productions of Victorian novels, such as those of Charles Dickens and was referred to in the Sherlock Holmes stories A Study In Scarlet, The Sign of the Four, "A Scandal in Bohemia", "The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle" and "The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor".
Often made of hard-wearing fabrics, such as herringbones or tweeds, it was not a formal coat at the time, though in the 21st century a cape would be seen as such. After the Edwardian period, it lost its cape, and continued to be used as a heavy-duty overcoat, often in a double-breasted style.
A lightweight version of this coat is called an ulsterette.[1]

American Gods | ||||||||
Neil Gaiman | ||||||||
William Morrow, 432 pages | ||||||||
A review by Lisa DuMond
Shadow, betrayed and abandoned by his own personal god, is the perfect liaison in the showdown that is
coming. As the gods of our present and future prepare to battle the ancient ones, an empty shell like Shadow
may well be the safest thing to be. If, that is, there is any place on Earth that is safe. Some of
the places in which our hollow hero is about to find himself don't even appear on any of our maps. On
every step along the journey he will suffer for our perceived sins.
Dark though the subject matter may be, American Gods is easily Gaiman's most amusing and
entertaining work since Good Omens, his brilliant collaboration with Terry Pratchett.
Interestingly, there are some plot points in common between the two novels -- here is clearly a theme that
Gaiman tackles with glee and aplomb. If his name is not a household word yet, this book could well be
the one that lands him that status.
American Gods has "Hollywood" written all over it. In the best sense possible.
The scope of this novel is reminiscent of King's The Stand, without the gratuitous 100,000 words here and there.
Gaiman's command of language allows him to flesh out a character, build a setting, establish a mood, with a
few dazzling, concise brush strokes. His artistry is such that, throughout the book there are phrases and
passages that arrest the reader; words that deserve to be pulled out as a quote, an example of how we all
wish we wrote. Or, how we wish all fiction could be written.
In a genre where cutting-edge has come to mean more graphic, more shocking, more
disturbing, Gaiman represents the finest of another force in dark fantasy. While he does not flinch
from violence and gore, neither does he depend upon it to carry his work. Many have said that Gaiman is
the new face of horror fiction -- who could ask for a better poster-child?
American Gods is a dark, mesmerising adventure into the innermost reaches of the human heart
and mind. The characters we meet along the way are distinctive and unforgettable, aspects of our own
fears, desires, and weaknesses. What are they, really? Gods? Figments of our imagination? The only one
who can decide that is you. Read Gaiman at his best and come to your own conclusions.
When the time comes for awards for 2001, expect to see this novel on every short list, if not in the
winner's slot itself. Hard as it may be to believe, Gaiman has managed to top himself with a story that
merits the label of classic.
In between reviews, articles, and interviews, Lisa DuMond writes science fiction and humour. DARKERS, her latest novel, was published in August 2000 by Hard Shell Word Factory. She has also written for BOOKPAGE and PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. Her articles and short stories are all over the map. You can check out Lisa and her work at her website hikeeba!. |

Alleged teen gang member charged in attempted double murder outside Memphis high school
A 17-year-old who admits being a gang member since age 9 testified Wednesday that he only implicated himself in a gang crime outside Hamilton High School because he was pressured by police.
The teen, whose arms are covered in gang tattoos, said he has been a member of the Grape Street Crips for eight years but had nothing to do with an August incident in which Crips members allegedly shot at a member of the rival Bloods.
An undercover Memphis police detective with the Multi-Agency Gang Unit testified that hours after the incident, the teen gave him and another investigator the following account:
On Aug. 14, the teen was with fellow gang members in a car when his friend "Lucky" leaned out of the window and flashed Crips signs. Someone called "Black" from the Bloods walked over and punched "Lucky" in the eye.
"Lucky" wanted revenge.
A day later, the 17-year-old said he was in the car with "Lucky" and other Crips when they drove by Hamilton High at about 5 p.m., spotting their enemy as he started to walk home. "Lucky" began shooting.
The Crips sped from the area, dropping the 17-year-old off in his neighborhood, where he walked to his grandmother's house.
The teen explained on Wednesday: "My grandma's a Christian lady. She doesn't like gangs."
According to police, the victim had spotted the Crips before the shooting and dove to the pavement, so the bullets whizzed above him and dug into a vehicle parked in the school parking lot. Investigators say the victim identified who was in the car, including the 17-year-old.
Police charged the teen with attempted murder, but he now insists he lied when he said he was in the car during the gunfire, in order to appease police.
"I was scared they were going to take me to 201 Poplar and I never been there," he said of the adult jail. "I was shaking and nervous."
During a hearing Wednesday, the teen's attorney, Larry Nance, asked the judge to toss out the 17-year-old's statement.
He argued that police detained his client for several hours and that the teen, who has a mental disability, lacked the capacity to understand what it meant to waive his rights to an attorney during questioning or to remain silent. Nance said his client is only in 9th grade and can't read.
Prosecutor Dan Byer responded: "If you're out running with gangs, you're not going to do better in school."
Special Judge Herb Lane ordered an extensive mental health evaluation on the teen before he decides whether the statement to police will be tossed out.
Investigators have obtained warrants charging the trigger man and another Crips member, but they remained at large Wednesday night.

Title: | Theoretical and Kinetic Study of the Reactions of Ketones with HO2 Radicals. Part I: Abstraction Reaction Channels |
Authors: | Jorge Mendes, Chong-Wen Zhou and Henry J. Curran, 2013 |
Abstract: | This work presents an abinitio and chemical kinetic study of the reaction mechanisms of hydrogen atom abstraction by the HȮ2 radical on five ketones: dimethyl, ethyl methyl, n-propyl methyl, iso-propyl methyl, and iso-butyl methyl ketones. The Møller–Plesset method using the 6-311G(d,p) basis set has been used in the geometry optimization and the frequency calculation for all the species involved in the reactions, as well as the hindrance potential description for reactants and transition states. Intrinsic reaction coordinate calculations were carried out to validate all the connections between transition states and local minima. Energies are reported at the CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ//MP2/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. The CCSD(T)/cc-pVXZ method (X = D, T, Q) was used for the reaction mechanism of dimethyl ketone + HȮ2 radical in order to benchmark the computationally less expensive method of CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ//MP2/6-311G(d,p). High-pressure limit rate constants have been calculated for all the reaction channels by conventional transition state theory with asymmetric Eckart tunneling corrections and 1-D hindered rotor approximations in the temperature range 500–2000 K. |

GATE is an advanced opensource software developed by the international OpenGATE collaboration and dedicated to numerical simulations in medical imaging and radiotherapy. It currently supports simulations of Emission Tomography (Positron Emission Tomography - PET and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography - SPECT), Computed Tomography (CT) and Radiotherapy experiments. Using an easy-to-learn macro mechanism to configurate simple or highly sophisticated experimental settings, GATE now plays a key role in the design of new medical imaging devices, in the optimization of acquisition protocols and in the development and assessment of image reconstruction algorithms and correction techniques. It can also be used for dose calculation in radiotherapy experiments.
In 2009, the OpenGATE collaboration has been awarded the Physics in Medicine and Biology (PMB) Citazions Prize for its research paper "GATE: a simulation toolkit for PET and SPECT". The annual prize is presented to the authors of the PMB research paper that received the most citations in the preceding five years (according to ISI). |

c.1997 N.Y. Times News Service=
IKITSUKI, JapanWhen Kinshiro Ichinose was beheaded here in 1622 for believing in Jesus, his last words were, ``The time will come when the teachings of Christianity will spread once more.''
He was half right. These days, young people on this rocky fishing islet in southern Japan can indeed worship Jesus freely and loudly sing hymns that once had to be whispered. But paradoxically, nothing has killed off traditional Christianity in Japan like freedom of religion.
Back in the 1500s, Christianity spread rapidly in Japan, until a fierce repression began 400 years ago this spring. That sent believers into hiding, and these Hidden Christians, as they are called, survived hundreds of years of torture and executions with their faith intact.
Yet now believers say their ranks are shrinking under more insidious pressures: televisions, cars and video games.
A faith that endured centuries of unfathomable repression is collapsing in just a couple of generations. ``I haven't been able to teach my kids the prayers,'' fretted Yoshiaki Isomoto, 49, a lean clerk whose heavy eyebrows waggled in despair as he reflected on Christianity on the rocky, remote island of Ikitsuki.
It was partly Ikitsuki's isolation that protected its Hidden Christians, and a century ago, 90 percent of the island's residents were still Christians. Now only a bit more than 10 percent are.
In all of Japan, less than 1 percent of the population are Christians of any denomination; only a small portion of those are Hidden Christians.
``I wonder how long this faith can last,'' Isomoto said, ``because there aren't many young people among the believers. They haven't been baptized yet, and they have no faith in their minds.''
It is a tribute to human ornerinessand to courage and tenacitythat persecution sometimes sustains what collapses in freedom. That may be one explanation for why young people in these rocky islands are uninterested in living the religion for which their ancestors died.
This paradox may also help explain why the country in Asia where Christianity may be growing the fastest is China, where religious persecution is among the most severe. Early in this century, Christian missionaries could proselytize freely in China but made relatively few converts. Today missionary work is banned and worship can be risky, yet underground churches are booming.
``It's ironic that our faith is fading at a time of religious freedom,'' mused Hisami Taniyama, a postal worker and local Hidden Christian pastor. ``My ancestors kept this faith despite severe repression, and I want it to survive further. It shouldn't end here.''
St. Francis Xavier helped bring Christianity to Japan in 1549, and he and other missionaries were initially spectacularly successfulalthough for his first two years St. Francis, because of a poor translator, inadvertently preached salvation by worshiping Buddha. Within a few decades, Japan had at least 300,000 Christians.
Hideyoshi, the general who unified Japan in the 16th century, reportedly toyed with the idea of becoming a Christian but decided against it after he learned that he would then be allowed only one wife. Alarmed by the threat that he believed Christians posed to his rule, he soon banned Christianity, and 26 Christians were executed in the spring of 1597.
This part of Japan, near Nagasaki, was a center of Christianity and soon became legendary for the torments used to force Christians to recant. Christians were crucified, tied up in bags and thrown into the sea, dipped repeatedly in boiling hot springs and subjected to what was reputedly the most agonizing death of all: the torture of the pit, in which they were suspended upside down in a hole half-filled with excrement, with a light cut on their forehead, and left to bleed to death.
An hour of this was said to be excruciating, yet some Christians lingered in the pit for weeks before dying. Some were left with one arm untied and told that they could save themselves at any time by simply lifting a hand to renounce their faith.
The centuries passed and everyone assumed that Christianity had been exterminated in Japan. But when the country reopened to the outside world in the middle of the last century a French priest was amazed to get a visit from a group of Japanese who knelt and told him that they were secret Christians.
Up to 50,000 of these Hidden Christians had maintained the faith, although it became transformed over the centuries.
``I have a Buddhist altar and Shinto shrine in my house,'' said Tomeichi Oka, a genial Hidden Christian pastor, as he knelt on the tatami floor of his living room. ``In the old days that was just for camouflage, because our Christianity was hidden, but now I believe in the other gods as well.''
This acceptance of other religious beliefs is common in Japan; most Japanese identify themselves as followers of both Buddhism and Shintoism. But this pantheism has led to tensions between the Hidden Christians and those Japanese who in modern times have converted to Catholic or Protestant churches.
Because of the centuries of persecution, the Hidden Christians have no tradition of churches or public displays of their faith, although some have crucifixes that were secretly handed down from generation to generation.
When someone dies, a public Buddhist funeral is held, and then the Christians secretly gather to chant prayersoften in Latin, still recognizable despite mistakes introduced over the centuries.
``After the Buddhist funeral is held, we tell our God that it was all a mistake,'' Oka said. ``And then we hold the Christian funeral and sing the Christian hymns.''
The doctrine of the Hidden Christians is a fascinating example of how a religious faith can evolve to match local ideas and history. For example, the bible of the Hidden Christians, published last year in English as ``The Beginning of Heaven and Earth'' (University of Hawaii Press), describes not a great flood but a sudden tsunami, and the Noah-like figure survives not in an ark but in a canoe.
Mary is a 12-year-old girl from the Philippines who studies hard, turns down a proposal from the Philippine king and apparently visits Japan. Holy Sacrament is the name of a tutor for Jesus, the chief disciple is the pope, and Jesus is betrayed by Judas, ``who eats his rice with soup every morning.''
Later, the Crucifixion is arranged not by Pontius Pilate but by two different men, Ponsha and Piloto.
Some Hidden Christians rejoined the Roman Catholic Church after freedom of religion was introduced late in the last century, while others continued to follow Hidden Christian practices.
Ikitsuki Island is filled with sites like the eerily named Thousand Corpse Mound, where the authorities executed and buried Christians. Officials sometimes ordered the heads of Christians to be buried far from the rest of their bodies, to reduce the risk of resurrections.
But most of the Christians here were executed on a tiny islet that today is a sacred spot where water is believed to gush forth when Hidden Christians repeat their traditional prayers.
The Hidden Christians say that one of their pastors once visited the spot with a Catholic priest, and that first the priest repeated prayers to no avail.
``Then I hear that our pastor chanted our prayers,'' said Taniyama, the pastor, ``and water came gurgling from the rock.''<
By NATALIE ANGIER Scientists have been accused of playing God when they clone
sheep, and of naysaying God when they insist that evolution be
taught in school, but as a new study indicates, many scientists
believe in God by the most mainstream, uppercase definition of the
Repeating verbatim a famous survey first conducted in 1916,
Edward Larson of the University of Georgia has found that the depth
of religious faith among scientists has not budged regardless of
whatever scientific and technical advances this century has
Then as now, about 40 percent of the responding biologists,
physicists and mathematicians said they believed in a God who, by
the survey's strict definition, actively communicates with
humankind and to whom one may pray ``in expectation of receiving an
answer.'' Roughly 15 percent in both surveys claimed to be agnostic
or to have ``no definite belief'' regarding the question, while
about 42 percent in 1916 and about 45 percent today said they did
not believe in a God as specified in the questionnaire, although
whether they believed in some other definition of a deity or an
all-mighty was not addressed.
The figure of unqualified believers is considerably lower than
that usually cited for Americans as a whole. Gallup polls, for
example, have found that about 93 percent of people surveyed
profess a belief in God. But those familiar with the survey said
that, given the questionnaire's exceedingly restrictive definition
of Godnarrower than the standard Gallup questionand given
scientists' training to say exactly what they mean and nothing
more, the 40 percent figure in fact is impressively high.
More revealing than the figures themselves, experts said, is
their stability. The fact that scientists' private beliefs remained
unchanged across almost a century defined by change suggests that
orthodox religion is no more disappearing among those considered
the intellectual elite than it is among the public at large. The
results also indicate that, while science and religion often are
depicted as irreconcilable antagonists, each a claimant to the
throne of truth, many scientists see no contradiction between a
quest to understand the laws of nature, and a belief in a higher
The results of Larson's survey, which he conducted with a
religion writer, Larry Witham of Burtonsville, Md., appear on
Thursday in the journal Nature.
Larson did not try to determine whether the scientists he polled
were Christian, Jewish, Muslim or any other creed, whether they
went to religious services or otherwise attended to the rituals of
a particular faith. He merely wanted to see what had happened in
the 80-plus years since the renowned psychologist James Leuba asked
1,000 randomly selected scientists if they believed in God.
Leuba, a devout atheist, had predicted that a disbelief in God
would grow as education spread, and Larson decided to use the
psychologist's exact methods to see if the prediction held.
He polled the same number of researchers as had Leuba and used
the same source for picking his subjectsthe directory ``American
Men and Women of Science,'' a compendium of researchers successful
enough to win awards and be cited regularly in the scientific
literature. He followed Leuba's survey format to the letter, with
the same introduction and the same questions written in the same
stilted language, even enclosing the same type of return envelope.
More than 600 of about 1,000 scientists answered the questionnaire,
similar to Leuba's response rate.
In addition to the question about a belief in an accessible God,
the survey asked whether the respondents believed in personal
immortality, and if not, whether they would desire immortality
anyway. Here there were some changes in the responses. In Leuba's
survey, 50 percent of the scientists said they believed in personal
immortality, a puzzling and inconsistent figure given the more
modest 40 percent belief in God. Moreover, many doubters confessed
to a strong desire for immortality. Larson found that his two
statistics, a belief in God and in life everlasting matched; and
that those who didn't believe in personal immortality had little
wish for it. ``I see this as a healthy trend,'' he said. ``People
have become more consistent, confident and comfortable with their
world views.''
But of the divination that religion was on its way out, Larson
writes, ``Leuba misjudged either the human mind or the ability of
science to satisfy all human needs.''
Rodney Stark, a professor of sociology and comparative religion
at the University of Washington in Seattle, said that because the
questions in the Leuba survey are so narrowly phrased, the results
probably underestimate the extent of religious sentiment among
scientists. Several recent surveys of American college professors,
he said, show that professors are almost as likely to express a
belief in God as are Americans as a whole.
Moreover, he said, when the sample in a study he and his
coworkers are now doing is broken down into specialties, teachers
of the so-called hard sciences, like math and chemistry, are more
likely to be devout than are professors of such softer sciences as
anthropology and psychology or of the humanities.
Since the analysis is not finished he could not give exact
numbers. The reason for the discrepancy may be that, in an odd sort
of way, traditional religious dogma suits the mathematically
inclined mind, suggested George Marsden, a professor of history at
the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Ind. ``It could be that
scientists are used to looking for definite answers, whereas
humanists go into their field because they like to deal with
Leuba's survey had an enormous impact in its day. William
Jennings Bryan, a populist Democratic politician and orator, used
the results as ammunition in the Scopes trial of the 1920s,
claiming that they showed a scandalous level of atheism among
scientists and thus proved the dangers of allowing evolutionary
thinking to pollute education.
Larson suggests that the updated survey could be used for very
different ends, to calm public fears that scientists are godless at
heart. Whether the public hungers for the reassurance is another
``In 1916, when scientists were emerging as the high priests of
a new technological culture, everybody cared about what they
thought and believed,'' Marsden said. ``But the prestige of science
peaked in 1960 and has been declining ever since. Do people still
care whether scientists believe in God? I'm not so sure.''
c.1997 N.Y. Times News Service=@
They knew what they did. When President Clinton and Vice
President Gore opened the White House to visits from China's top
arms peddlers and allowed Beijing's middlemen to drop money into
the political begging bowl, they knew that they were increasing the
power of the world's biggest dictatorship, one particularly devoted
to religious persecution.<
Now they complain about not being fully informed by their staffs
or investigators about donations. Journalists ask what counts in
courts of lawwhat did they know, or why didn't they know?<
But in the courts of political morality and common sense, they
are indicted for having empowered China not just at fund-raising
time but year round since 1993. That was when Clinton made business
deals with China his top priority, not human rights, or weapons
proliferation, or other items outside the cash flow.
The evidence is obvious. Clinton and Gore are neither ignorant,
stupid nor naive. They understand that when you hold out the bowl,
the hand that gives today will be the fist that knocks on the door
tomorrow. They know nobody in a dictatorship interested in staying
off the rack arranges money for foreigners, or pays campaign White
House visits, without instructions from the regime.
But here's some lovely news: Americans are getting fed up with
the administration's passionate courting of China.
They are awakening, sadly late, to the Communists' persecution
of the Christianity that the great majority of Americans practice
themselves. The awareness is creating the first nationwide
constituency to oppose American appeasement of Beijing.
So far, the administration and the China business lobby have
been getting away with a collection of falsehoods about U.S.-China
An annual deficit of $35 billion in trade with China somehow is
dandy for the United States. Americans will eventually get jobs out
of it, if they wait patiently while forced-labor products flood
them out of the market.
The persecution in China of Christianity and other religions
will not be as easily diddled out of the American conscience once
it takes full hold.
For all dictatorships, free religion means free minds, their
particular terror. Beijing meets its fears as dictatorships do:
arrests and beatings of clergy and worshipersrecently as prelude
to Gore's grand visitand regulations to drive congregations into
officially supervised churches. Millions of Chinese Catholics and
Protestants resist and commit the crime of worshiping together in
their own ``house churches.''
The oppression is reported by human rights groups and the U.S.
government itself. The only mystery is why Americans, Christian or
not, showed such callousness to Christian persecution in China,
other Communist countries and some Muslim countries. American
businessmen may have feared closing off markets or oil contracts,
but that does not excuse them, and certainly not the rest of us.
The time of our apathy may be ending. The letters that have come
to me since I began writing about Christian persecution enrich my
life, and buoy my belief in the importance of people living in
freedom to speak and act in support of victims of despotism.
How to move from attention to action? In New York, City Council
President Peter Vallone is working to end municipal investments and
deposits in persecuting countries. Done nationally in cities and
states, it would amount to scores of billions.
In Washington, there is increased congressional determination to
help Chinese Christians and Tibetan Buddhists, the two major
targets, but no agreement on how to do it.
One approach is to use the tariff weapon, specifically against
imports from China's largest exporter and beneficiary of forced
laborits armed forces. The other is to withhold loans from the
World Bank and the Export-Import Bank, and fight about tariffs next
Failure in Congress to push forward to help Christians in China
would be the China lobby's greatest victory. One letter I got came
from the 11-year-old granddaughter of a famous American politician,
whom she already outwrites.
She is deeply troubled about persecution of Christians. Will
grown-ups keep her waiting year after year for the answer to her
question: What can we do to help?
c.1997 N.Y. Times News Service<
NEW YORKIn a frank and sometimes tense exchange with business
leaders Thursday, the Rev. Al Sharpton said that he did not
consider Louis Farrakhan to be an anti-Semite and asserted that a
grand jury had erred in rejecting Tawana Brawley's story of rape
and racial abuse nine years ago.
Sharpton, speaking at a private midtown Manhattan breakfast
intended to confront doubts about his mayoral credentials, asserted
that he is subjected to a double standard: his career, he
complained, is unfairly framed by a handful of racially charged
Sharpton told his audience of lawyers and business executives
that he had been assailed for questioning the Brawley grand jury by
some of the same kind of people, whom he did not further
characterize, who attacked a jury for acquitting O.J. Simpson of
murder. And he said that his long history of working with the Rev.
Jesse Jackson is often overlooked, while his more tenuous
association with Farrakhan is a subject of constant attention.
``It's almost like I have to answer for every black on their
mind,'' Sharpton said after the breakfast. Referring to one of his
opponents, Manhattan Borough President Ruth Messinger, Sharpton
continued: ``Ruth doesn't have to answer for every woman she ever
attended a rally with.''
In fact, it was in a deliberate effort to move beyond his past
that Sharpton accepted the invitation Thursday. And he is to give a
speech Friday wrapping himself in the liberal mantle of the
Democratic Party, pledging to oppose tax cuts because they hurt
social programs and urging that legal immigrants be allowed to
If Sharpton needed any proof that his past and his perceived
ties to Farrakhan would complicate his mayoral efforts, he did not
have to look any further than Thursday's meeting. During a
question-and-answer session, a member of the audience asked
Sharpton if he would ``denounce'' Farrakhan.
``I don't publicly denounce anybody,'' Sharpton demurred. But he
noted that he had never worked for Farrakhan or belonged his
organization, the Nation of Islam.
And when asked by the same man, who did not identify himself, if
he considered Farrakhan to be anti-Semitic, Sharpton responded,
``No, I do not.''
That response was met with startled silence. Farrakhan has
described Judaism as a ``gutter religion,'' has called Jews
``bloodsuckers'' and has argued that they were ``wicked deceivers
of the American public.''
After the session, Sharpton said he based his opinion of
Farrakhan's attitude toward Jews on his personal association with
him. ``I don't feel he's an anti-Semite,'' Sharpton said. ``I know
him. I've talked to him. I've dined with him. I don't find the man
to be privately or publicly what he is projected to be.''
Sharpton said he had fully expected the skeptical reception. ``I
wonder what Ruth and Freddy would say if they knew I was here,'' he
said on his arrival, surveying a white and wealthy audience. He was
referring to two of his opponents, Ms. Messinger and Bronx Borough
President Fernando Ferrer.
Sharpton attempted to focus Thursdayand will again Friday _
on what he said would be central planks of his campaign. They range
from restrictions on police conduct to hiking income taxes on
commuters to opposing the popular idea of cutting sales taxes on
clothing; government needs the revenue, he says. His opposition to
cutting taxes separates him from Ms. Messinger and Ferrer, whom
Sharpton criticized for a politically ill-advised move to the
But Sharpton was reminded again Thursday of the hurdles he faces
in trying to move the spotlight from his political history to his
political ideas.
Richard Wiese, 37, who works a science reporter at Channel 9 and
attended the breakfast as a guest, raised Miss Brawley's name as
soon as Sharpton asked for questions.
``Most people, if you mention your name, know you as the person
associated with Tawana Brawley,'' Weise began. Sharpton
interrupted: ``But who are most people?'' He noted that he had
received overwhelming support from black voters when he ran for
U.S. Senate in 1994. ``The question becomes why do blacks and
others see me totally different? So when you raise `most people,'
you have to talk most WHAT people? Most black Democrats don't see
me that way.''
Sharpton said he saw no reason to disbelieve Ms. Brawley's story
of abuse, although a grand jury dismissed her claim that she had
been abducted and raped by a band of white men. ``I clearly think
that if Tawana Brawley case had gone to a public trial,'' Sharpton
said, ``in my opinion it would have been a different result. But it
At one point, Paul R. Beirne, the investment partner who
arranged the midtown meeting, asked about Sharpton's difficulties
with Jewish voters. Sharpton said such questions came up only
because of his association with Farrakhan. He said that was unfair
and complained that black political figures were always asked to
account for the remarks of other blacks.
Sharpton recalled an appearance with Jackson in 1994 at the Park
Avenue Synagogue.
``He was heckled through his speech,'' Sharpton said. ``Twelve
years after `Hymietown.' After 10,000 apologies. I mean, it's a
situation where we have to have dialogue with the black community
and the Jewish community.''<

A Much Needed Makeover.
I felt it was time for a change. With the same template in use for almost two years, I felt Beautiful Makeup Search was in need of a makeover. A much needed makeover.
Over the last few days, you may have noticed, well, at least I hope you did, the new color scheme and header on the site. I think it looks more clean, and the lighter colors certainly reflect my mood. Light. Free. Clean. Casual.
Please let me know if there is something not working, or if anything on the new template bothers you at all. I am trying to get used to having the sidebar on the left. I initially tried to do it on the right, but for some reason my padding (or coding) was off, and nothing lined up. As soon as I moved it on over to the left, everything worked. If I get too many complaints, I will work on it some more.
I hope you like it! After all, we all need a bit of makeover every now and then.

Byrne, Alistair, Harrison, Debbie and Blake, David (2004) Barriers to pension scheme participation in small and medium sized enterprises. Discussion paper: UBS Pensions Series 029, 523. Financial Markets Group, London School of Economics and Political Science, London, UK.
Download (76Kb) | Preview |
Large sections of the UK population are failing to make adequate provision for their retirement, and one area where provision is notably poor is amongst people working for small and medium sized businesses. We use information gathered from interviews with individuals from a wide range of organisations active in the pensions market for these companies to shed light on the particular barriers to pension scheme participation in this sector in which over 40% of the working population is employed. We find that many finance directors are sceptical of the benefits of providing pensions for their employees and deliberately structure their pension schemes to avoid high participation rates. We also find that financial advisers and pension providers are reluctant to promote pensions in companies where they perceive the management to be unsupportive and where there is no clear profit margin. We suggest one way in which management could be motivated to encourage pension scheme participation amongst their employees.

When Mullikin finished her Ph.D. in 1922, she went to work for the School District of Philadelphia as a teacher of secondary mathematics. She already had several years of teaching experience.
After her graduation from Goucher, she went to the Science Hill School, a private prep school for girls in Shelbyville, KY, for two years. Then she moved for one year to the Mary Baldwin Seminary, then a women's junior college in Staunton, VA, where she was the only full-time teacher of mathematics.
She took a year off from teaching during her first year at Penn, but in 1919-1920 she joined the faculty at the Stevens School, a private girls' prep school in the Germantown section of Philadelphia.
The following year she was in Texas teaching undergraduates, and in 1921-1922 she taught at the Oak Lane Country Day School, a private elementary school in the Philadelphia suburbs. Her first assignment in the Philadelphia School District was at the William Penn High School for Girls.
After one year she was transferred to a coeducational academic high school, Germantown High, where she remained until she retired in 1959. During this 36-year tenure she earned a reputation as a demanding, sympathetic, and effective teacher of mathematics. Figures 4 and 5 picture Miss Mullikin in a high-school yearbook from 1945, after she had switched her first name to Anne.
It also appears that after World War II she taught veterans who were filling colleges under the GI bill. Her report to the Goucher College Alumnae Association in 1949 mentions that she had been teaching part-time at "area colleges of the Commonwealth of Pa.," although we have not been able to determine which colleges these were or what she taught.
In 1952 Miss Mullikin was appointed Head of the Mathematics Department at Germantown High and a year later became "chairman of the Mathematics Advisory Committeeâ??a committee which determines the curriculum with respect to mathematics in the Junior and Senior High Schools" [A1]. During this time she became a textbook author, publishing Algebra and Its Use, Book I and Book II, written with Ethel L. Grove, who had taught at Cuyahoga High School in Cleveland, and Ewart L. Grove of the University of Alabama [14], [15].
Book I moves very carefully through different types of equations from x + a = b to quadratic equations with, according to the introduction, balance and equation as the "keynote." It is very much rule driven, with prescriptions followed by long exercise sets, the basic teaching strategy being practice in class followed by homework problems.
There is no mention of commutativity, associativity, or distributivity. Each variant on a type of equation has its own prescription with little indication of common features. One innovation is student-written word problems, p. 131. After Mullikin retired in 1959 she completed another book with the Groves, Basic Mathematics, published in 1961 [16].
In 1954 Goucher College held a science conference in conjunction with the dedication of the new Hoffberger Science Building. Several Goucher alumnae who had achieved distinction in the sciences were honored. The citation for Mullikin reads [3]:
Originator of the Mullikin theorem in point-set topology in the plane, inspiring and beloved teacher in the Germantown High School of Philadelphia, by your ability, patience, good humor, and enthusiasm you have imparted to hundreds of students a sure knowledge of elementary mathematics and its significance in modern life and thought. From the richness of your own mind you have developed in many of these young people the beginning of an appreciation for mathematical ideas.
Some of R.L. Moore's later students came to understand that he was "heartbroken" by Mullikin's decision to "waste her talents" as a high-school teacher [39, p. 242]. Jeanne LaDuke has written that some American women who earned a Ph.D. in mathematics in the early part of the twentieth century would "emphasize teachingâ??because they want to or because they are pushed in that direction" [13, p. xix]. Was Mullikin pushed or did she gladly choose to teach secondary mathematics?
Mullikin's own education at a women's college and her first three years teaching in women's institutions may have led her to envision herself as an educator of young women. She might have decided to pursue the Ph.D. to qualify for positions at women's colleges, which provided almost the only employment opportunities for scientific women in the early part of the twentieth century [42].
If so, she had changed her mind by the time she finished her degree in 1922, and was exploring positions in China. J.R. Kline wrote to R.L. Moore in September 1922, "Miss Mullikin is teaching in some girls high school in Philadelphia... Her China job did not materialize" [A5].
It is beyond the scope of this paper to attempt a conceptualization of the careers of American women Ph.D. mathematicians, but it is germane to compare Mullikin's career path with those of the other three women who received their degrees in 1921-1922.
Margaret Buchanan (1885-1965) graduated from West Virginia University before enrolling at Bryn Mawr College, where she wrote her dissertation under Anna Pell Wheeler. She then returned to her alma mater and taught there for the rest of her career. A West Virginia alumni award is named in her honor.
Claribel Kendall (1889-1965) received her bachelor's degree from the University of Colorado in 1912 and joined the faculty the next year while pursuing a master's degree, which she received in 1914. She attended the University of Chicago during summer sessions and ended up writing her dissertation there under Ernest Wilczynski. She remained at Colorado for the rest of her career.
Eleanor Pairman (1896-1973) was a human computer in Karl Pearson's Department of Applied Statistics at the University of London before enrolling at Radcliffe College, where she received her Ph.D. under G.D. Birkhoff. She and fellow graduate student Bancroft Huntington Brown were married in the same year their degrees were conferred. Mr. Brown was appointed to the faculty at Dartmouth College where Mrs. Brown found that she shared research interests with Rudolph E. Langer, with whom she published a joint paper [27].
In these two respects Pairman seems to be an exception among our four women; she is the only one who married and the only one who published anything other than her dissertation. The others, like Mullikin, remained single and embarked on teaching careers, albeit at their home universities.
We believe Miss Mullikin was drawn, not pushed, into secondary teaching. Her decision to teach in 1919-1920 and 1921-1922, when she had fellowship support from Penn, suggests that she enjoyed teaching. The reports of her students confirm that she took pleasure from their successes. She also had the model of her two older sisters who were both teachers in the Baltimore schools [1], [2].
Confirmation that Mullikin made a free choice comes from her student and friend Mary-Elizabeth Hamstrom, who attended Germantown High School from 1941 to 1944. Two years later, as an undergraduate at Penn, she wrote to Moore for information about his program at Texas. His reply closes with the request to extend greetings to Miss Mullikin quoted at the beginning of this article.
Hamstrom went on to take a Ph.D. from Moore at Texas and to become a distinguished research topologist at the University of Illinois. She has written to us that Mullikin found that "doing research was much too hard work for her tastes" and that Mullikin chose to teach in public schools because the pay was better than in private schools and colleges [19].
The citation quoted above from the 1954 Goucher Science Conference, probably written by Hamstrom, who was then on the Goucher faculty, praises Mullikin for her "patience, good humor, and enthusiasm." In a solid geometry class at Germantown H.S. in 1942 Hamstrom was challenged and encouraged by Mullikin. She "stimulated good students and was patient and pleasant... She was really pleased when a student solved a hard problem and showed it with a broad smile. She had a good supply of problemsâ??many hardâ??for good students" [19].
Other students agree. Three from the class of January 1945 have written to us. Earle W. Barber, Jr. recalls that students and faculty alike regarded her as one of the best teachers in the school, certainly the best in the mathematics department. She "treated all her students with respect" but "did not forgive those who did not do their homework."
At Germantown each class had a dual slate of officers, a young man and a young woman for each office, and two faculty advisors, one male and one female. For his class Barber was the male class president and Mullikin was the female advisor. He says that all the class officers found Mullikin more approachable and supportive than her male colleague but "she never let me get away with any shenanigans" [5].
Wallis D. Bolton recalls Mullikin as "gentle but firm... warm and friendly" [6]. He reports that she worked hard to develop mathematical competence in all her students but "took special pleasure in challenging those members [of her class] who were math-bright." He supports Barber's remark that she did not forgive slackers. Although he was one of the bright students and generally rose to Mullikin's challenge to earn an A, when he took a part-time job just before graduation and neglected his homework, he received a grade of C.
James Buck discloses that Mullikin had some of the talent-spotting ability for which her advisor Moore was famous. In tenth grade he was assigned to an algebra class for students of low ability. But Mullikin recognized that he could do better. "Each day she gave me separate, more complex homework assignments.... Miss Mullikin challenged me everyday... and brought me to being a straight A student in my math classes.... How she ever picked me out as having ability, I don't know" [7]. But it changed his life; he went on to a career in the new computer industry, working at IBM.

Firebox Records has set an October 20 release date for the new album from DOOM:VS, the Swedish one-man project featuring DRACONIAN's Johan Ericson. Entitled "Dead Words Speak", the CD was written and recorded by Johan himself at the DRACONIAN rehearsal room. With a more heavy approach regarding the sound than previous efforts, the music is both darker and more eerie than ever before. Filled with emotion and despair, "Dead Words Speak" is a personal settlement with the past. Almost crushing sometimes, the music never lacks the evocative melodies that signify DOOM:VS.
According to a press release, DOOM:VS is a project born from the idea of constructing something utterly dark and personal in the unique field of doom metal. Near the closure of 2004, the self-produced demo album "Empire of the Fallen" was released — a four-track obscure and prominent contribution to the doom metal underground. The demo was very well received and led to a deal with the Finnish label Firedoom Music (extreme doom metal specialist label of Firebox Records). Soon after that the debut album, "Aeternum Vale", was recorded and finally released in 2006 and was met with very good reviews throughout the doom metal community.

Agnes grabbed the box of envelopes and made a run for it. I was on a conference call at the time and there was not much I could do to stop her, and Agnes knew it. When I was off the call I discovered Agnes in a sea of envelopes happily eating the box. She has a kleptomania problem. However, she could care not less and most certainly does not feel any shame! Which makes us love her even more."

Yellow Springs School Board Section :: Page 4
School breaks open 2020 plan
After a year of brainstorming, researching and discussing the wide world of education, the Yellow Springs school district presents its first draft of the Class of 2020 10-year strategic plan.
Class of 2020 Initiative — Executive Summary
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — Yellow Springs Exempted School District Class of 2020 Initiative Strategic Plan, 2011-2020 Draft.
Teachers agree to pay freeze
The Yellow Springs school board unanimously approved a new contract with the Yellow Springs Education Association at its meeting Monday, Aug. 1.
Survey gives schools B, C grades
The Yellow Springs School District district released the results of the survey this week, and overall, the community rated it "within average to above average range," according to the survey report.
Schools trying to stem losses
According to the Yellow Springs school board, due to the cumulative effect of the budget reductions the district instituted this spring, the five-year budget forecast through 2015 looks slightly better than it did last fall.
Schools broaden elective choices
Teachers and administrators of Yellow Springs High School and McKinney School met last month to compose a new class schedule for next school year, which allows students greater flexibility and leverages teachers' time to create more core electives.
Roosevelt speaks on crisis in public education
Last Saturday Antioch College President Mark Roosevelt, the former superintendent of Pittsburgh schools, spoke on the American educational crisis at an event cosponsored by the Antioch College Morgan Fellows and the Yellow Springs public schools.
School's 2020 plan kicks off

School's 2020 plan kicks off
The Yellow Springs School Board's Class of 2020 strategic planning process kicked off Saturday morning with a community workshop at the Glen Helen Building.
School's 5-year forecast in red
The current school district budget picture, as presented by district Treasurer Dawn Weller at the school board's Oct. 14 meeting, shows that expenditures are increasing at a greater rate than revenues, and the local district will begin running a negative cash balance at the beginning of the 2013 school year.

Chapin, Vincent and Sers, Florence and Chassaing, Patrick Global self-excited oscillations in a two-dimensional heated jet : a numerical simulation. (1997) Fluid mechanics and its application, vol. 4. pp. 9-15. ISSN 0926-5112

PDF (Author's version) - Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader 119kB |
The aim of this work was to develop a numerical methodology to gain insight in the low-density jet behaviour with a nonlinear approach. Numerical simulations are shown to differentiate convective and absolute instability regimes and to capture a self-excited global mode in an open flow : the 2D hot jet. The first part is devoted to numerical methodology and its validation on this unsteady problem which is known to be noise sensitive. The second part presents numerical results. They confirm theoretical and experimental results on the development of self-exited global oscillations of the jet column when the density ratio is lower than its critical value. The global mode and its associated Hopf bifurcation are identified.
